PWM frequency is not as expected

[AFink]

Hi,

I'd like help to understand what is thew PWM frequency.

As far as I understand:

1. The main system clock is 64MHZ -- see below SystemClock_Config()

2. PWM frequency is 64KHz (= 64MHZ / (1000 - 1))

BUT, measuring the frequency shows 4KHz (rather than 64KHz).

Can some please explain it?

 

Thanks,

Aviv

What chip are you using?

Is it on a devboard, or some custom board?

Have you verified that?

How do you make that measurement?

Hi Andrew,

It's a custom board (quiet simple one...). 

All numbers were verified by a Scope.
